“The KDE Team is pleased to
announce the launch of Konqueror.org, a website devoted to
Konqueror, KDE’s next-generation, full-featured, powerful,
flexible, modular and Internet-transparent file manager,
web
browser
and universal document
viewer
.”

“Konqueror, which has been widely acclaimed as a technological
break-through for the Linux desktop, has a component-based
architecture which combines the features and functionality of
Internet Explorer®/Netscape
Communicator® and Windows Explorer®.
Konqueror supports all major Internet technologies, including
JavaScriptTM, Java®, HTML 4.0, CSS-2
(Cascading Style Sheets), SSL (Secure Socket Layer for secure
communications) and, in the near future, Netscape®
plugins (for viewing FlashTM, RealAudioTM,
RealVideoTM and similar technologies). In addition,
Konqueror’s network transparency offers seamless support for
browsing Linux® NFS shares, Windows®
SMB shares and FTP directories. Konqueror will ship as part of the
highly anticipated release of KDE 2.0, targeted for mid-summer
2000.”

“Konqueror’s developers created Konqueror.org to serve as
Konqueror’s official website. There users can learn about
Konqueror’s many powerful features, keep abreast of the latest
Konqueror news and developments, learn how to download and install
Konqueror and submit comments and questions to Konqueror
developers. Developers can learn how they can use Konqueror to
web-enable their applications, how they can enable their
applications to serve as a Konqueror component and how they can
contribute to Konqueror’s ongoing development. “
